Listed at almost $13 million, 5431 Appleby Line in Burlington offers a unique opportunity for those with a vision for growth, blending tranquil green living in a custom environment.

First Impressions and Interior Highlights

Before even stepping foot inside, the home makes a strong impression. The gated entry, featuring 19-foot custom iron gates and an expansive circular driveway, promises ultimate privacy. Inside, a grand foyer at the heart of the 9,300 square foot home boasts soaring 18-foot vaulted ceilings and striking cherry hardwood throughout.

The main level includes a chef’s kitchen, equipped with a granite island, walk-in pantry, built-in oven and microwave, and ample storage. Also on this level, you’ll find the primary and second bedrooms, with ample windows allowing natural light to pour in. The primary bathroom features double sinks, a luxurious soaker tub, and a walk-in shower.

Lower Level and Outdoor Features

Moving to the lower level, there are two recreation rooms and a noise-insulated, walkout basement. This space includes a gym, a games room, and even a guest suite. But the real magic lies outside the home. The picturesque land parcel includes mature landscaping with three ponds, a large work shed, wooded trails, and horse-ready pastures.

The backyard is a private oasis, featuring a resort-style saltwater pool with a stone waterfall and grand patio, perfect for entertaining. Dual access points enable flexibility for residential growth and commercial use.
